The ping statistics in Eddie are usually way too pessimistic. Eddie pings all the endpoints almost simultaneously, so the reply packets arrive also around the same time, which can be verified by WireShark. However, if the bandwidth of the internet connection is not great or it suffers from buffer bloat, the ping times are 2x-3x larger than usual (that is when an endpoint IP address is pinged from a terminal). I wish the developers would change the ping mechanics by delaying the time between the packets, or at least make an option for that. Because of the current implementation, the "best server" from Eddie's viewpoint can be located in another continent because of the corrupted ping statistics.

Ah yes, Sucuri..

Can confirm all of what you wrote. I'd expect to have the Web/Mail switches for this in said AirVPN section of the options.

Asked to post this bug report from AirVPNs forum post at Running on the latest version of Debian Bookworm, with AirVPNs EddieVPN testing version 2.23.1 installed either by the .deb package or with apt package manager results with a successful installation of the software though does not connect to any VPN servers with the error lines stating to to contact Eddies support team in the log file with the lines: Elevated: Command:route E 2023.07.11 02:56:15 - Elevated: Exec, path:'/usr/sbin/ip', arg:'-4', arg:'route', arg:'add', arg:'79.142.76.246/32', arg:'via', arg:'XXX.219.18.171', arg:'dev', arg:'enp1s0', arg:'metric', arg:'0', exit:2, err:'Error: Nexthop has invalid gateway.'

Hi, I raised a ticket on the support forum about an issue I am having with 2.21.8 regarding Eddie-Ui not starting in a Lubuntu VM running under Hyper-V. Support suggested that I try the 2.23.1 beta and see if that worked and to post the result here if I see the same issue. When I tried the beta I see the same problem and so these are the details: I am runnie eddie on 2 separate Lubuntu Linux VMs with different hypervisors running under Windows 11 Pro. One works, one doesnt. The environments here are: 1. Lubuntu 22.04.2 under VMPlayer, eddie-ui is fine and VPN, including port forwarding, just works. 2. Lubuntu 22.04.2 under Hyper-V, eddie-ui wont start and I get the 'cannot initialize UI. Probaly a DISPLAY issue, ensure you are not running as root. Error:A null reference or invalid value was found [GDI+ status: InvalidParameter]" Unfortunately, I cannot run VMWare in the office so need to find a way with Hyper-V. My investigation on the Lubuntu under Hyper-V so far: - The user in both cases is called 'download' ie not the root user. - Hyper-V Integration services are set - The DISPLAY variable is set to DISPLAY=':0' and all the other Lubuntu app/tool UIs work just fine.
